There is nothing to sux the fun out of .....its sucked dry already... They just trying to make tools to keep people playing... and at the rate the players are whining in the office forum .... is going to take alot more that the current updates!

The game is just Weak in every aspect... except size... Its FULL of Empty space....!

Who's they? the community of dedicated fans?

Certainly different from the "players whining in the officIAL forum": oh, I crashed my 22mil ship and I didn't have money to pay for its insurance - devs you are killing my gameplay.! you suck the fun out of the game I haven't researched before buying and I don't know how to play!"

E:D is not an MMO, it puzzles me why there's even a section about it on mmo sites. It's like considering GTA online an MMO, equally retarded.

It's just an "ONLINE VERSION" of Elite and Elite:Frontier from the 80s and the 90s respectively, where some of the procedural stuff that powered those games is actually replaced by real players' actions. That's all. Niche game for the 30-40 and older that were there when Braben gave us those gems. NOTHING ELSE.

There's no paradise, there's no trouble: for a "reboot of a milestone in gaming history", it delivers.

If you look for a "star citizen alternative that actually has a close release date and has been fully playable for many months", E:D is def not for you and never was intended to be - regardless of the inclusion/removal of an offline mode that is so 1990 and not 2014.

Originally posted by CrusadesI'm going to stick with Skyrim until AA fixes their game, unlike Skyrim which is graphically superior to AA btw, AA crashes my gtx 660, and I am not the only one. I do believe that AA did capture more Skyrim online than ESO. The freedom is just not there in ESO.

AA current build crashes many videocards or so, due to some crazy overloading feature spinning out of control when set to dx11.

Setting it back to dx9 not only has no visual impact whatsoever (I know, I know..) but brings down my 560 ti SLI temperature from 89 C to 65 C, with load going from 99% to 40%. This as of CBE#2 - I'm not founder, no clue what it is right now, just reporting my experience.

If you have a founder's pack, maybe you can try playing around with video setting while running some GPU monitoring tool, to see load/temps until you find something that works for you and enjoy the game.

- melee dmg output is still subpar in pvp compared to any other ranged variant: with risk vs reward in mind, staying ranged you risk nothing and get all the rewards, melee you risk everything and deal pisspoor dmg even with a legendary 2h, full medium armor r12, capped stamina, 45% crit and about 180 weap dmg unbuffed;

- Heavy armor still useless in cyrodiil (or anywhere, for that matter) as every cloth wearer that knows what he's doing, runs with capped HP and armor exactly like any plate wearer. Except that plate wearers get nothing in return (in combat health regen? like you could regen anything when sniped 2 times for 1300 with animation canceled of heavy attack that adds 800+ )

- an already OP bow (pre-patch) is still the only viable stamina based weapon in pvp. hits like a truck, from range, with light/heavy attack. Snipe has 1-2shot potential, and now is casted even faster and can be used at even shorter range.

This game had so much potential, but clearly whoever is in charge has other priorities (like adding fancy lights instead of fixing pvp).

Another disappointment. Quite sad, I like the game but I don't like being forced to play cloth/staff or bow, because everything else is not equally viable.

There are numerous online cdkey resellers that me and my guildies regularly use, that sell ESO at below 20 now, and in CBT at less than 30 (and totally legit, quick and professional). Not providing any links as apparently it's against mmorpg.com policy.

Google is your friend, one of the very few examples for which globalization is good ;)

Same for 60d gamecards (for ESO and other games), quite the bargain - 2months at same monthly rate of the 6month official sub price..

As for the OP: they are deleting because they want to sell directly their overpriced rate of 59.9 or whatever it is on their website..

Ah the days of Mid holding all STR relics for months, and hibs severely underdog resorting to guerrilla tactics and sabotage to wear off the enemy and have a shot at reclaiming, or ninja-ing the alb relic-runners.

There were no char transfers, and server hoppers were forced to rerolls that would take weeks if not months to be "powerful enough". The drama was intense, the QQing as well, but so was the realm pride and the communities forged in these circumstances.

There were people rerolling just to BE in the underdog realm and face bigger challenges!!

Kids these days.. "what if I'm the underdog? what are the devs doing so I don't suck?" geez..

I am aware about the "manual dealing" for the gil-stealing hack, I've been following that communication to decide if their response was worth my money and well, didn't convince me enough. They can say 200, could be 20.000 or 20, customer base will never know the truth.

The fact that SE admitted there was a problem but *NEVER* posted anything about fixing the root cause is quite suspicious: in case it happens again "sorry folks, after all we never said it was fixed, nor that we added couple server checks - we just said we banned someone and our CSR returned the stolen money"

As per the question you edited in:

I've seen dozens of teleport miners warping around the nodes and mining inside nodes up until the first week of november (frustrating to gather manually to sell HQ mats, and then see these bots stocking up on those..). No clue if they still there, that's why I asked if anything has been done about it. Apparently, not ?

I've also seen people insta-leveling professions right in my face due to "injecting sh*t" in their data stream (or whatever they were doing), could see the leveling spam in the log;

That's where I got my impression, first hand cheat fest right in my face: personally I find these technical flaws unacceptable in a sub-based game that even had to be relaunched: money clearly isn't going into content, so I expect my sub to fund prompt fixes of security holes (not some lame apologies - that's what F2P companies do, not pay2play).

Regarding the "task force operation": that link is outdated. I found the task force operation quite useless as I've been playing 07/10 -> 07/11. RMT spam was off the roof and blocking them quite cumbersome.

So since I considered that information outdated and useless, I asked the community - sorry if it annoyed you.

Righ-click -> block: 2.1 - well seriously? a minor UI addition has to wait a major content patch?

Apologies if someone feels annoyed by questions that I considered legitimate, due to the fact the information available is dated before I was even playing or happening while I was playing: I asked if anybody was aware of any major changes related to those issues in the past 10 days. Apparently, there's nothing new about those in the past 10 days.

Seems like in my case it's better to wait for 2.1 and see what happens then, before even considering re-subbing - thanks for info on the current status, I'll hold on my money until I personally consider SE worth supporting.

I wonder how many people, like me, unsubbed and are not playing simply because:

server transfers, even paid, are not even mentioned as something that will come;

no way in hell all the paid legacy unlocks will have to be repurchased (on top of rerolling) because of lack of server transfer (or because legacy unlocks are not account based but server based - 1 flag in account database that makes such a big difference)

If one day it was nuked and obliterated to hell, with the squeal of cobolds and trolls growling in agony, my realm pride would rejoyce (clearly that would leave me with only the myrmidons zerg to fight but oh well... good times xD )

I hope to feel the same love/hate someday, being it in TESO or any other game with the same "zone lock" philosophy.
